• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Solved! How do I go to manual suspension on my RT?

    No, the ACS switch is located above left side swing arm. It controls when the compressor turns on.

    My F3S tire is showing wear after only 2000 miles.

    I am lucky, my dealer will install car tires on Spyders. He is even thinking about carrying some car tires.

    Is my Air bag leveling? Any way to make it more noticeable when adjusting the ride height?

    I agree with Mikey. Another thing to look for is your mudflap will be very close to the floor. I lost two compressors on my old 2011 and you will know if it fails.

    Do you have a vegetable garden &/or grow any Fruit trees? What time & effort do you put into it, and what do you grow?

    Growing up on a farm we grew 90% of our food. We had 2 gardens, a little over an acre of gardens. We had to weed 2 rows every day. Milked cows by hand. Now I at 66, I do not have a garden or cows to tend.

    How long does the Factory Belt Tensioner last by miles?

    I just replaced mine at 40,000 miles. The spring had broken quite a while earlier. Before installing the new one, I checked my belt tension, 170lbs. Just right for me.

    Fuel Gauge Quit, still shows Empty after filling - any ideas what's happened?

    I was going to suggest using the digital gauge. To use it, unplug the analog fuel gauge and the digital gauge should show up in the middle screen. Bruce

    Anyone got this/figured out the Steering Assembly Play? Is this normal, or is there a fix?

    Shaun Smoak did a video a few years ago about the excessive play with the handle bars. Do a you tube search. Good luck.

    Must the spring be compressed to allow Adjusting the Shocks?

    I believe they would adjust easier if you've got the wheels off the ground. You want as little pressure on the spring as possible..

    HCM filter change, now in Limp Mode with Engine & VSS Lights - anyone else? Any solutions?

    Since you have a 2020 RTL, did you remove right side floor boards, and then remove large black panel to access the HCM filter? If you did you could have hit the brake light switch on removing or putting parts back on bike.
